Dr Peter Lovatt
Dance Psychology Lab

---

Dr Lovatt's Dance Lab, which is based in the School of Psychology at the University of Hertfordshire, carries out research in the Psychology of Dance.  A team of researchers address questions such as: How do we communicate through dance? What are the health benefits of engaging in recreational dance? Do people with autism view dance differently to people without autism? What do people "see" when they watch dance?

The Dance Lab team is currently made up of one Doctoral student (Carine Lewis), one graduate research assistant (Tracy Ashwood), five MSc Project students, eight BSc honours project students, and a number of visiting researchers. The Dance lab also accommodates sixth form students on work experience and we are proud to have hosted two students funded by the Nuffield Bursary Scheme.

If you would like to work with us in the Dance Lab, whether for a few days or a few months, please contact Dr Peter Lovatt by email on P.J.Lovatt@herts.ac.uk.
